Do not trust Edu-Inter

If you are looking for a French school in Canada, I do not recommend Edu-Inter at least not at this moment in time. We brought our daughter to her Edu-Inter homestay in Quebec and learned on arrival that the host had not been given any information about her, including about her nut allergy. The host had only been informed that we were coming when we texted her on the way. There's serious disorganization. There's also false advertising: Edu-Inter did not assess our daughter in advance as promised. The next day, there were no lessons at the school. The music program was not held at the Conservatoire de Quebec as promised but in a small music store in a strip mall outside of the city to which she was driven. Her bus ride back took 1.5 hours. We called the coordinator and two directors, left messages and no one called back. We decided to remove her from the school after the first day. A week later and still no return call and no response to our request for a refund. We were required to pay with a certified check, which means we couldn't simply stop payment. DO NOT TRUST THIS SCHOOL!

Poor experience. I left!

I'm an adult student from Canada (Alberta, the other side of the country) who was at Edu-Inter for two weeks in July 2018 to improve my French. (I already have an Intermediate level DELF B2). I can't really speak to how this program is for the youth, though teens are the mainstay of their business, with students being about 80% youth to 20% adults (and not mixed). I must compliment Edu-Inter for a few things done well: the range and low cost of cultural, extra-curricular activities, including a great kayaking trip. The actual teaching is good (although yes, it is pretty worksheet-ish). I can't fault my individual instructors. The school site is a lovely, well located heritage building. However, they are so foolish to have this site as a summer school. It's not a space for learning, as it's far too hot with no air conditioning! July 2018 nobody could concentrate. The school admin. staff didn't seem to care; they just said that's the way it was and they limited the teachers to one barely-useful fan per classroom. It was so awful that I looked around for another school. Luckily I found one in Ecole Quebec Monde. Air conditioned and small class sizes. I learned more there in a week than I would have in three weeks at Edu-Inter. Also: be careful of additional surprise charges. Regarding housing, I signed up for a cheap University residence room, so I knew it would be small and simple. It was baking hot and unliveable. For my own health I had to leave and pay for several nights of a hotel room I had to organize myself, while the school figured out whether they could re-house me somewhere air conditioned. Happily they could. It was a lot of angst and wasted time in all. I was lucky I was able to do it all capably in French, with an adult's confidence, credit card and intolerance of b.s.

Incredible way to learn or better your French

The multiculturalism at Edu-Inter is simply phenomenal. The staff and fellow students that I met there quite simply made my experience unforgettable. The City of Quebec is also incredible to say the least, and its people are very welcoming. As I Nigerian student who schooled at Edu-Inter for 4 months, I must say it has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. I would definitely recommend this program to anybody seeking to learn French in Canada.
